Weekly Bulletin - October 25, 2013

FRANCIS WYMAN SCHOOL - WEEKLY BULLETIN

* Please check out the running calendar on the right side of the blog. Scroll down to see future events. For instance... can you find the date for Field Day? How about the time for the Halloween Parade? As always, please call the office if you have any questions.

There is no upfront cost or tickets to purchase, just
show up. The cost is the food you eat and the beverages you drink. The BHS Hall
of Fame gets a percentage of the sales for that night.

We hope to see everyone there. Please pass this on to
all your friends and family. Take out or eat in.

Scouting for Food is coming to your neighborhood. The scouts from Pack 555 will be dropping of plastic bags on your neighborhood doors with a request to collect donations for the food pantry. This philanthropic event is something simple but extremely rewarding to our scouts. If you know a scout in your neighborhood and didn't receive a bag, let them know you would like to help out too. Scouts will be coming by your house to pick up the bags of donations around November 2. Your grateful contributions keeps them participating every year. So if you get that friendly bag on your doorknob, please help them assist the needy families in our community. Thank you in advance.
